This a part of the dedication of the book, Awake: A Blueprint for Conscious Living in the Age of Acceleration, written by Shailesh Haribhakti, an advocate of ESG, CSR, and sustainability, with a five-decade career as a Chartered and Cost Accountant.

This dedication is, almost, like a gist of the book which talks about varied things in our day-to-day life, which if done mindfully, with awareness, can change the course of our lives.

“The idea came to me when I had gone to Sri Sri University. I was inspired there by 30 youngsters who were awarded PhD that day, out of which 25 were women. All had only one question to ask — where do I stand in the job market? That made me realise that it so deeply embedded in the psyche that after education I have to get a job!” Shailesh Haribhakti reveals.

This realisation proved to be a trigger that made Shailesh Haribhakti to write this 90-page book in a lucid language which is extremely easy for the youth to understand. Each chapter is made of one-liners that are paragraphs in their own which exemplify concepts in a simple manner.
